TO THE FAMILY OF JEAN WOLSHEID STINARD

I was saddened to hear of Jean's death. I had exchanged e-mails with her a few times over the past year, since our class reunion, after being "out of touch for 50 years. My thought and prayers are with the entire family. I will always remeber her beautiful voice, I've have never heard Ave Maria sung with more feeling.
An out of town appointment will prevent me from attending the wake, but my prayers are with her and and her family at this time.

TO THE FAMILY OF LAVERA JONES

TO THE FAMILY OF ARTHUR "KOJAK" FORD

I shall always remember Kojak as our driver to many field trips to New York City museums in the 90's.He was,without fail,always on time and possessed a kind and friendly demeanor to each and every student throughout the day.Students were happy to see him behind the wheel,often greeting him with a "hiya,Kojak" as they boarded the bus.I might add that they cleaned the vehicle before leaving without any grumbling or even having to be asked...usually followed by "thanks,Kojak,seeya later".We will all miss him.

TO THE FAMILY OF HAROLD ULBRICH

Please pass on my condolences to Harold s family.I went to PJHS with him and later would run into him as he worked for Wells years ago.He was always a gentle being. I always enjoyed his company.I'm sure you all will agree that the world is a darker place with out him.My heartfelt sympathy to all his family, and a special hug to his sister Barbara who I worked with a number of years ago.I'd like to offer you dear folks a Celtic song lyric, which as I have watched all but a few of my own family pass away, This poem has offered me a little comfort. "Well Meet On The Ledge"We used to say that come the dayWe'd all be making songsOr finding better wordsThese ideas never lasted longThe way is up along the roadThe air is growing thinToo many friends who triedBlown off this mountain with the windChorus: Meet on the ledge, we're gonna meet on the ledgeWhen my time is up I'm gonna see all my friendsMeet on the ledge, we're gonna meet on the ledgeIf you really mean it, it all comes round again Yet now I see I'm all aloneBut that's the only way to beYou'll have your chance againThen you can do the work for meMeet on the ledge, we're gonna meet on the ledgeWhen my time is up I'm gonna see all my friendsMeet on the ledge, we're gonna meet on the ledgeIf you really mean it, it all comes round again You are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time, Ralph Drake and family

Dear Uncle Jimmy and Family of Douglas M. Longwell, we are deeply sorry to hear of the loss of a truly great and loving man. He was a shining star here on earth.

Our sincerest condolences and our prayers are with you, always.

TO THE FAMILY OF WERNER HOHNHORST

Dear Inga, Sylvia, Nicki, Kristen & family,
Was so sorry to hear about your tragic loss. I was so shocked when I read about it. We lived next door to you for a few years at Castle High, and my son Cody, followed "Vern" around like a puppy. He was a good man, and I'm sure he'll be sorely missed. Maybe there's some comfort in the fact that he went doing what he loved to do. I just wanted to send my sincere condolences. Very truely yours, Mary Freeman Evans, Jessica, and Cody Freeman.

TO THE FAMILY OF HAROLD ULBRICH

To the Family of Harold Ulbrich, I offer my sincere sympathy. I attended St Mary's school and have some fond memories of Harold as my classmate. I still remember how the nuns would pull the back of his hair. He could always make his classmates laugh. It has been many years but the memories will always be there. I am sure you all have your own memories. God Bless you, Sherry Innella Barrell
